One time when I was single, I started talking to a woman who I had met on-line. She sent a picture and she was quite attractive. I sent one of me and she said she was very attracted to me also. We sent email after email and basically typed our fingers raw! Then we got to the phone side of our relationship. We talked for hours and hours about every topic under the sun. One time we talked all night for twelve hours straight. I had never talked to anyone for so long. We had a special chemistry.
In our long phone conversations and emails we decided we were meant for each other and were had a special kind of connection. We were soulmates who were brought together by God. We were at a fever pitch.
Finally, we made arrangements to meet. Both of us were so nervous and excited. The night before we met we had phoneXXX. It was great! Finally we will meet! Waiting in the restaurant I had butterflies. She was late. Finally she showed up and the magic was ready to start.
Then nothing. She did not really look like her picture and she seemed so different than she seemed like on the phone. Then she started to cry. She said she was so disappointed in me. She said I was not as good looking or nice as I was in the picture or on the phone. She rushed off to the restroom to compose her self, then must of slipped off through a back door. I waited and never saw her again. It was my last blind date ever!
a blind date is somebody that a friend fixes you up with. an internet date is somebody you meet on your own on the internet no?

Yeah, hopes built up high can easily crash in reality. And that's the better way out 'cause I married my lil' fantasy.
That sucks! I'm in a similar situation. I met this guy during the DNC (we were both working it) but I only saw him for probably ten min. and I was super busy while we were talking. I honestly dont remember what he really looks like. I do remember I wasnt that attracted to him though. But we've been texting everyday since and he seems like a really sweet guy. He keeps asking to go out on a date, but I'm scared its gonna be the same problem as refugees.
I've done the internet dating thing. Personally, I think it's a mistake to wait to meet because then you have all of these expectations and it's really not fair for either of you because ultimately no one can live up to them. If you meet someone briefly or online I say speak on the phone for a week but try to meet sooner rather than later. Because if they're not the same person as in the picture then at least you haven't wasted that much time. But if they do happen to be a pretty cool person you'll actually notice it because you haven't had time to "build" them up.

It IS a mistake to wait to meet! See, if it were me, my curiosity would be getting the better of me. I would HAVE to meet that person right away.

This sounds like a nightmare. I'm glad I'm not out there looking for love in all the wrong places.
